Woven Rail Fence revisited

Woven Rail Fence quilt sample for my class. Finished the blocks this evening. Six inch blocks are set 8 x 8. Borders will be added. Will be about 60 x 60 finished. Definitely an eclectic mix including a Christmas fabric!
A simple modified rail fence, the challenge for this class is fabric selection, value and placement. Click website for more details if you are in the Chico area and interested in taking this class. Also covered are basic quilting skills such as rotary cutting, stitching a 1/4 inch seam, strip piecing, pressing, adding borders and we end practicing some FMQ. There are a few openings. Thanks!

Check out the Owl quilt made by Theresa. In cool grey and blues on a white background. I did the back ground quilting and Theresa appliqued/quilted the owl onto the quilt after it was quilted. You can see it at HoneyRun Quilters. Very clever and she is working on another with big flowers! It's nice to get to practice longarm quilting on these sample quilts for HRQ!
Thanks for stopping by :0) Happy Quilting
